Chapter 1951
"Are you terrified now?!" it madly raved, only to suddenly turn quiet. Looking around, it saw nothing but an endless white void instead of the translucent skin it had been expecting. When it was inside Yu Ziqian, it could use that skin to control the vita of the owner, but here there was no skin to be found.
Suddenly, it felt like it was losing it. It didn\'t feel like it had infiltrated its host at all. Instead, it was like it had been sucked into an endless abyss in which no exit existed. It didn\'t even know where Qingyu was, let alone controlling her.
"What in the world? What\'s going on?" The voidheart worm reassumed its arachnid form, and the space around it was large enough for it to take that form. But that shouldn\'t be the case, since it had obviously burrowed its way into her vita. This simply didn\'t make sense! A moment later, it felt the hair on its soul stand on end. "Who\'s that?!"
It snapped around and blankly stared at the nine devils that appeared within the white fog. They all looked sinister and horrifyingly ugly. Not only that, they weren\'t any bit smaller than the voidheart worm. "Terrae? Why would terrae be inside the vita?" Normally speaking, terrae could enter the sea of consciousness as well, but not the vita.
The nine terrifying entities surrounded the voidheart worm and said in unison, "You’re nothing but a naturally incomplete insect. There’s many things that you are ignorant of. You should have never been arrogant enough to assume an early victory."
The voidheart worm was completely baffled at what was happening, which was clearly visible from the expression on the beautiful face on its back. From its confusion, terror finally emerged. In contrast, Qingyu had never appeared the least bit fearful the whole time. Its fear was the spark that lit the fuse of its death!
The nine devils charged toward it, pressing it down. One after another, its legs were pulled off before they were plunged back into its body.
"Aaaaah!" The voidheart worm helplessly shrieked. The terror it was experiencing seemed to inhibit its movements. "Run! I need to run!"
It tried running away like a madman as its mood crashed to rock bottom. Howling and crying, it scrambled away like a little rat, revealing its true colors. It was nothing but a creature that bullied the weak and feared the strong, and when faced with actually powerful beings, it didn\'t have the slightest bit of courage to stand up for itself, which was completely in line with its beast-like nature. Its screams grew louder and louder.
"Forgive me! I won\'t do it again! Please!" Despair colored its shaky voice.
"You’ve used up your chances," the nine fiends said in unison. They had given it the death sentence.
The voidheart worm was torn to pieces amidst all the shuddering and shrieking. Its beast soul was converted to pure soul energy, which was in turn absorbed by Qingyu\'s vita and the nine fiends. This time, the voidheart worm was dead for good, in both body and soul, without a single trace being left of the latter.
However, huge changes started occurring in Qingyu\'s sea of consciousness. Aside from that, her physical body had also changed when she was undergoing extreme pain while the voidheart worm was burrowing through the soul path. The changes started from the soul path itself, which was the tenth bump on her arm. The black boil had turned into a bloody mess once the voidheart worm entered her, and the pain that came from there could be felt all throughout her body! She had clenched her teeth hard to prevent herself from fainting.
"Lifesbane.... It represents the life-threatening tribulations one has to go through while fighting fate. Only by surviving can one have a future." Unlike Tianming and Li Wudi, she had become a nonabane but hadn\'t experienced any true hardship until the old gods\' blood and voidheart worm. The two tribulations had come upon her at the same time, bringing her much suffering. Her head was still stuck in the cauldron and she wasn\'t even able to breathe thanks to the blood pooling near her face. However, she remained brave thanks to her light, Lingfeng, who was fighting through tens of millions of specters to get to her.
What didn\'t kill you made you stronger! Her heart and mind were reforged into an even tougher form from the entire ordeal. Not only had she not cried or caved to the fear, her resolution and courage were sharpened in her dire straits. Her heartbeat quickened more and more like a rising crescendo of drums. The blood in her veins flowed at terrifying speed and, when it reached the peak, she let out a heart-rending yell from within the cauldron.
Her voice seemed to reverberate out of the lair of the Void God, containing all of her struggles and determination. It felt like the world was collapsing around her, but that wasn\'t as nightmarish as it sounded. In fact, it was like finally breaking out of her shell and hatching into a brand new life.
Legend spoke of old gods\' blood being the best possible boon that could happen to totemancers. It was far more crucial to them than universal manna was to beastmasters. However, Qingyu hadn\'t felt like it had benefited her in the slightest throughout all her hardship. Even so, her story wouldn\'t be ending on a depressing note. Through her perseverance, she had finally endured until the benefits of the ancient blood surfaced, maintaining her courage to continue living throughout without having her psyche distorted from the suffering.
The transformation brought about by the ancient blood was a tribulation, and it had peaked when the voidheart worm decided to capture her. Her heartbeat sped up and her raging howl itself seemed to tear at her cruel fate, activating the blood of the old gods that had seeped into her body, corrupting it and her totems. Finally, the blood was revealing its true properties after having spread throughout her entire body, changing her in body, spirit, totems, and lifebound beast!
The blood had completely assimilated with her bloodline, the will contained within deeply resonating with her soul as she absorbed the voidheart worm into her being. The torrent of power even entered Shuo Yue\'s body through their symbiotic cultivation pathways!
